The Friends of Cathays and Cardiff Bereavement Services have a very positive working partnership for the betterment of Cathays Cemetery.
We would ask that our volunteers who attend workdays are respectful towards our colleagues in Bereavement Services. If there are any issues concerning family graves, please can these be directed towards the main Bereavement Services Office during the week on either 02920544820 or via email thornhillreception@cardiff.gov.uk
The Friends organise a weekly walk around the Cemetery starting behind Cathays Library, top of Fairoak Road on Tuesday Mornings at 10.30am. The walks last approximately 1 hour.
These walks concentrate on the history, fauna & flora around the Cemetery.
